Timothy John Szumlas

March 4, 1958 - September 23, 2024

Artist, Father, Teacher and Friend

The man who lit up a room by stepping inside.

A friend to all who knew him.

A heart of gold with boundless generosity and a pure spirit who saw the good in all.

Tim's special gift was engaging the young and the vulnerable, to teach and to nurture.

His deep love was for his children, James and Carly.

His passion was artwork and his Green Street home of 45 years where his gardens, his talents, and his friendships flourished.

Tim leaves Sally, his wife of 37 years, his children and godchild, two uncles and aunts, two siblings, many beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, and the community of dearest friends that grew around him for a lifetime.
